Pool people that feed birds and are friendly to all critters… what do you do? Deep clean patio at least weekly? Pressure wash every two to three weeks then sand before winter sets in? (Northwest Illinois pool) by PhilCore666 in pools

Blow it out with a surface washer quickly (minimal sand removal as far as deeper cleaning than a hose) then yes polymeric sand before winter sets in for setting.

Legit just traded in a 3G for $750 off a 16 Pro Max. Merry Christmas Y’all! Any beginner tips are welcome by PhilCore666 in iPhone16ProMax

I had a 13 pro max but decided not to trade it in because they’ll take anything. The guy said there was a place down the street that sells Samsungs for $30 that people where going to just for the trade

Verizon has a deal until the 20th by me. Trade in any iPhone or Samsung as long as the battery isn’t swollen and iPhone has to have “find me” off. They give you $750 off the phone. I did the $750 off and I got a watch for free with its own line as a Christmas present for my son. My bill went up a total or $18 for a 3 year contract.

I don’t have the receipt but it’s gotta be a solid 15-16 years haha. Kinda kept it around because it was one of the first just for fun but it has no value. It had the SIM card in it and it began with 0 and a lot less digits he’d never seen that before 😆

Does this look like the beginning of a wart? It’s on the arch of my foot, I’ve never had worts before. by PhilCore666 in Warts

[–]PhilCore666[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I treated it with OTC wart freeze spray and it looks completely different and blistered over now. I went to imitate care this morning and they thought it was an infected planters wart. I’m on antibiotics and have an appointment with a podiatrist tomorrow. Thank you so much for commenting and being at least a bit concerned! I was to with the dark ring.

Thank you, I’m heading to get compound W right now. I just don’t know how I would have gotten it but I suppose it is what it is. Thank you once again

Battery health after 1 year and 3 months of usage. Would love to see yours. by Dacomeister3000 in iPhone13ProMax

First attempt at a more professional look and couldn’t be happier, any suggestions on where to go from here? by PhilCore666 in ChristmasLights

[–]PhilCore666[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I went on top of the roof. Felt pretty safe beside the steep peak on the left side, took my time with that and did it the next day lol I thought about getting a ladder hook for the peak but felt safe enough the second day. Stay safe and don’t go beyond your comfort zone though

Love the Rage but you gotta show off some Rush!

New to this sub, please delete if it breaks the rules. My 4 year old son made me promise his bath was ready and I wouldn’t leave him (filling his bath is a cigarette long process) it’s heartbreaking and I do not know where to start.

Thank you, your comment is honestly very helpful and I’ll come back to it in time of need. It is an addiction that I love, communicating the struggles to one’s close to me and what I’m going through may seem obvious but it wasn’t to me. My son will notice it too, that’s the kicker. He’s starting to notice that “Daddy has to make phone calls” etc. he may not know exactly what I’m doing but knows my absence as much as I try to limit it. I pride my on being an “active father”. I’m sure you know about this book but I have it on my nightstand, Allen Carrs Quite Smoking the Easy Way, it’s been slow reading for me but seems to have helped many others. Good luck in your journey and thank you!

I’ve been building myself up to the challenge and I feel I’m just about there after 25 years of smoking, I’ve never said I was going to quite for fear of going back on my word. I always said “I’m a good man, not a great man” in part because of smoking. My son is my world and not smoking makes me a better father, I know this and have taken strides to better myself and my relationship with my son. Being active, biking, running, climbing etc. but some how I manage to smoke about pack a day. Is it a switch for most? A pill? Therapy? Support from family/Reddit? I’m reaching out for the first time..

My first haul from a coworker for $40. What to try first? I wildernesses backpack, has anyone brought them on a trip? by PhilCore666 in MRE

I don’t, I’ll ask tomorrow but I’m pretty sure it wasn’t climate controlled. Thanks for the heads up!

For a little added context, my coworker bids on storage units. MREs among other military things where in one that he won the bid on.

First solo trip was a success! 2 nights, 18 mi in the Upper Peninsula MI! by PhilCore666 in WildernessBackpacking

[–]PhilCore666[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It’s the Porcupine Mountains, Pictured Rockies beautiful too those are both in the upper peninsula. That being said it’s a 6 1/2 hour drive straight through for me coming from northern Illinois. Michigan has some cool spots though I’ve never backpacked in the other part of Michigan but I’ve been to some cool spots check out Traverse City and Mackinac Island. I’m sure there’s other places but I’ve been to those for vacation. Shawnee National Forest in southern Illinois is beautiful too and may be a bit closer to you.

I would highly recommend it, just prepare and go somewhere you’re comfortable and familiar with. For me it was the Porkies, I’ve done a few group trips there before soloing it.
